The fourth Kevin Spacey accuser in his London sexual assault trial admitted he joked about the alleged incident with friends as a way to cope with the trauma.
The case was hobbled after Spacey's accuser invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination and refused to testify about text messages that the defense said were deleted.of drugging and assaulting him admitted he joked to his friends about potentially sleeping with Spacey if he couldn't find jobs.
During cross-examination, Spacey's lawyer, Patrick Gibbs, confronted the witness with the jokes he later made about Spacey and apparent texts or calls he made to the star after the incident. He denied staying in contact with Spacey for four months after the incident despite data from the actor's phone that appeared to show phone calls and text messages to the witness' number.
He said he had heard Spacey was gay and liked young straight men but was naive when he accepted the actor's invitation to go up to his flat in the Waterloo area of London. The man said he decided to come forward in 2017 after Spacey was accused of sexual misconduct in the U.S. when the #MeToo movement erupted.
